It has been a joy to support the outstanding students of the Wingate High School Cross Country team with snacks and equipment. In exchange, the entire team came to the Community Pantry the week before our health screening in September and assembled all 1,400 dental kits needed for the dental screening. They finished so that so quickly they had time to sort 8 HUGE bins of new books that had been sent to the Pantry from Save the Children. We are incredibly grateful for all their help!

Just in time for the holidays, lots of charming and beautiful handmade Christmas and holiday cards have been added to ANA’s Etsy site. They join with the Santa and Angel ornaments and a variety of quilts. 100% of the proceeds (minus postage) of all ANA’s Etsy sales go to purchase period supplies that fill “moon time” bags for Native American school girls. Please visit our Etsy site to check out the wonderful variety of cards: bit.ly/ANAEtsy If you would like to help make moon time bags, you can find the directions here: bit.ly/ANA-GI

ANA’s amazing and extremely generous donors made it possible for ANA to fulfill The Community Pantry's request (located in Gallup, NM) for $150,000 to fund the critically-important Food for Kids (FFK) program, allowing almost 1,500 children to participate in the program this school year. Each Friday, the children receive a bag of 11 to 13 nutritional kid-friendly snacks to take home so they have something to eat over the weekend. Without FFK, many of the children would have nothing to eat from Friday’s school lunch until they return to school for Monday’s school breakfast. In addition, ANA awarded the Pantry a $25,000 manpower grant to assure they have a staff person to fill all the FFK bags each week and $15,000 for the Kids Café which gives students in after school or sports programs a snack to eat. Our deepest appreciation and gratitude to all who so generously gave to make this possible.

ANA’s team of 8 volunteers has returned from a week of health screenings in 12 elementary schools on the Navajo and Zuni Nations. Along with 17 students from University of New Mexico-Gallup nursing program, 832 students were screened. New this year was the partnership with the University of New Mexico Ophthalmology Department. During the first 2 days of screening, 6 doctors and 4 med students came to determine the correct prescription for students who were found needing glasses following the Lions Kidsight vision screening. This allowed students to choose their frames on the spot! Another first, Dr. Sherly Alex, Aaron Alex, and Dr. Phil Alex performed both dental evaluations and dental education for all the students in Zuni’s Shiwi Ts’ana Elementary School. Alex arranged for dental health kits for 1,400 students – which were distributed to students in both Zuni and Navajo schools. Gratitude and appreciation to all these wonderful volunteers for their time, expertise, and stamina for a great week of health screenings.

Many thanks to the team from Doylestown Presbyterian Church who spent much of last week working at the Community Pantry. During their time there they repackaged:

- 28 cartons of cereal were broken down, totaling 2,240 small boxes.
- 55 boxes of plums were bagged, equaling 1,600 pounds
- 300 boxes were each packed with 14 healthy meals for the Mutton-Food is Medicine Program. This totaled 4,200 meals for the clients of the program.
- 18 bulk cheese packages
In addition, the Mission Team undertook several other tasks, including packing Food for Kids bags, serving customers who came to the Pantry for food, repacking large cereal bags, packing multiple pallets for the commodity food program, and repacking bacon, eggs, and various other items for the Pantry.
Thank you to each and every team member for a job well done!

The National Charity League - Central Bucks Members Only has taken on ANA as a charity to support. It is a non-profit organization dedicated to mothers and daughters serving communities together. In the two months we have partnered , they have stuffed our June newsletter and our Garden Party invitations. They came twice to sort the wonderful clothing our shoppers purchase, and pulled what was needed for two of our schools. They will be helping with a number of jobs at our Garden Party on August 16. We look forward to a long association with this very helpful group of moms and daughters!

If you would like to get more information about how you can shop, please email [email protected] We know the students you will be helping will be very grateful! Thank you!
